The Love Pendulum"

By MARION RUBINCAM

Chapter 75. "At least I'm glad to know they don't like me, and why," I said" finally. "It clears- the atmosphere, doesn't it? I could not understand this curious antagonism. I've felt It ever since I came

back."

This produced an odd effect. Instead

of softening, mother Taylor stiffened as though a rod had been tied to her back.

"Even if you think my house is hid-

eous and full of a lot of trashy furni-

began to work. Connie came into the room, hugging her railroad engine, and began to drag out the toy tracks and switches that went with it. She was much too young to have any idea of now to play with mechanical toys, but she liked the glitter and clatter of the tin tracks aa she pulled them out on the floor. Mother Taylor watched her curiously, and I watched Mother Taylor while I worked. Because of our talk she had, at least, lost her uncomfortable feeling towards the child.

exclaimed with sudden fury. "At least in New York and the other big cities they vary the gossip by talking of interesting things, books and music and politics and travel and things of that sort. Here they seem to talk scandal and nothing else, except how to bake cakes and run a house." "The scandal's worse in the city " "It isn't. It couldn't be, I interrupted, thinking of the sordid, ugly details of some of the talk I had heard. ":It's worse here because it's narrowed so.

Yet she must have repeated what I said, otherwise it could not have gotten back so. I tried to explain my own harmless remark. Explanations made it worse, as unfortunately they have a habit of doing. "You see, I happen to like rooms with very little in them. You like rooms with more things about. I was tired and restless when I . first came

"No." I said quietly. "If I had any good reason for bringing Mrs. Anderson I would, but she would find it hard to leave her family." Another silence. "I suppose since you find it so unpleasant here you'll be going back to the city?" "No," I answered again. "I had thought of that, but I shan't. I've just finished fixing up this house. I'm perfectly comfortable here and Connie is improving every day. It's cowardly to run. It looks guilty too, so I'll stay. More than that, Colin is coming again if you'll let him have a room in your house." To-morrow Colin.

Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: This summer I was going with a young man who seemed to love me dearly. He came to see me almost every night and he took me everywhere 1 wanted to go. He did not tell me in so many words that he loved me, but his actions led me to believe that he did. Now he has gone away to college. Before going he t-aid he would write and tell me his address. I have not heard from him, but I have learned his address from his sister. I asked her for it and she gave it to me. Do you think it would be all right to write to him or should I wait until I bar from him? It seems to me he has had plenty of time to write. GRACE. Wait until the young man writes to ou and then answer his letter. The first days of the school year are very

full and probably the time is passing

for him more rapidly than he realizes. It seems a short time to him since he has seen you, but a long time to you. I believe you will get the letter, but you must be patient and not make yourself miserable because it does not come as soon as you hoped it would.

"Still pulling at my sleeve", she led me away from the cottage. As we went I glanced back, and there was that yellow livid face watching us out of the upper window. What link could there be between that creature and my wife? Or how could the coarse, rough woman whom I had seen the day before be connected with her? It was a strange puzzle, and yet I knew that my mind could never know ease again until I had solved it. "For two days after this I stayed at home, and my wife appeared to abide loyally by our engagement, for, as far as I know, she never stirred out of the house. On the third day, however, I had ample evidence that her solemn promise was not enough to hold her back from this secret influence which drew her away from her husband and her duty. "I had gone into town on that day,

but I returned by the 2.40 instead of the 3.36, which is my usual train. As I entered the house the maid ran into the hall with a startled face. " 'Where is your mistress?' I asked. " 'I think that she has gone out for a w-alk,' she answered. "My mind was instantly filled with suspicion. I rushed upstairs to make

sure that she was not in the house. As I did so I happened to glance out of one of the upper window?, and saw the maid with whom I had just been speaking running across the field in the direction of the cottage. Then of course I saw exactly what it all meant.

My wife had gone over there, and had asked the servant to call her if I should return. Tingling with anger, I rushed down and hurried across, de

termined to end the matter once and

forever. I saw -my wife and the maid

hurrying back along .the lane, but I did not stop to speak with them. In

the cottage lay the secret which was casting a shadow over my life. I vowed that, come what might, it should be a

secret no longer. I did not even knock when I reached it. but turned the handle and rushed into the passage. "It was all still and quiet upon the ground floor. In the kitchen a kettle was singing on the fire, and a large black cat lay coiled up in the basket; but there was no sign of the woman whom I had seen before. I ran into the other room, but it was equally deserted. Then I rushed up the stairs,

only to find two other rooms empty and deserted at the top. There was no one at all In the whole house. The furniture and pictures were of the mostcommon and vulgar description, save in the one chamber at the window of which I had seen the strange face. That was comfortable and ele

gant, and all my suspicions rose into a fierce, bitter flame when I saw that pn the mantelpiece stood a copy of a full- 5 length photograph of my wife, which had been taken at my request only three months ago. ! "I stayed long enough to make certain that the house was absolutely empty. Then I left it, feeling a weight at my heart such as I had never had before. My wife came out into the hall as I entered my house; but I was too hurt and angry to speak with her, and pushing past her, I made ray way into my study. She followed

me, however, before I could close the door. " 'I am sorry that I broke my promise, Jack,' said she; 'but if you knew all the circumstances I am sure that you would forgive me." " 'Tell me everything, then, said I. " 'I cannot, Jack, I cannot,' she cried. "'Until you tell me who it is that has been living in that cottage, and who it is to whom you have given that photograph, there can never be any confidence between us,' said I, and breaking away from her, I left the house. That was yesterday, Mr. Holmes, and I have not seen her since, nor do I know anything more about this strange business. It is the first shadow that has come between us, and

it has so shaken me that I do not know what I should do for the best. Sud-

idenly this morning it occurred to me

that you were the man to advise me, so I have hurried to you now, and I place myself unreservedly in your hands. If there is any point which I have not made clear, pray question me about it.

But, above all. tell me quickly what I am to do, for this misery is more than I can bear." Holmes and I had listened with the utmost interest to this extraordinary

! statement, which had been delivered

in the jerky, broken fashion of a man who is under the influence of extreme emotion. My companion sat silent now for some time, with his chin upon his hand, lost in thought. ' Tell me," said he at last, "could

you swear that this was a man's face; which you saw at the window?" j "Each time that I saw it I wa3 some distance away from it, so that it is impossible for me to say." "You appear, however, to have been disagreeably impressed by it." "It seemed to be of an unnatural color, and to have a strange rigidity about the features. When I approached it vanished with a jerk." "How long it is since your wife asked you for a hundred pounds?" "Nearly two months." "Have you ever seen a photograph of her first husband?"

"No; there was a great fire at Atlanta very shortly after his death, and all her papers were destroyed." "And yet she had a certificate of death. You say that you saw it." "Yes; she got a duplicate after the fire." "Did you ever meet any one who knew her in America?" "No." "Did she ever talk of revisiting the

place?" "No." "Or get letters from it?" "No." "Thank you. I should like to think over the matter a little now. If the cottage is now permanently deserted we may have some difficulty. If, on the other hand, as I fancy is more likely, the inmates were warned of your coming, and left before vou en

tered yesterday, then they may be back now, and we should clear it all up easily.. Let me advise you,- then, to return to Norbury, and to examine the windows of the cottage again. If you have reason to believe that it is inhabited, do not force your way in, but send a wire to my friend and me. We shall be with you within an hour of receiving it, and we shall then very soon get to the bottom of the business." "And if it is still empty?" "In that case I shall come out tomorrow and talk it over with you. Good-by; and, above all, do not fret until you know that you really have a cause for it." Tomorrow The Yellow Face, concluded.
